BOB McCLURE drives like he bet his money....or didn't.
Purse money is so good now that I don't see much betting. Sure, an owner can bet his horse if he thinks he can win. But it's not like the old days. Plus, the pools are much smaller now, and bets all show up. People talk about betting offshore, but they are not in business to give away money.Then of course you have the owners or trainers that say they bet thier horse good when it wins and made a ton of money. Most are full of shit. Covering up on a horse they overpaid for, which is way underperforming
Yonkers is the worst. They line up every race, and no one makes any moves till past the half. If you have the 7 or 8, it's a take-back till next week. It's tough to get in thier, but if you look at the earnings of the horses that do race there, they'll get thier share of the inflated purses. Some are better than others, but they all do very well.[/quote Yonkers is a half mile but a 7/8 mile race its insane but i can say the western CANADIAN boys are very friendly to each other,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, Maybe football needs to learn and when two boys line up and one is from TEXAS and the other from OKLAHOMA they need to be easy on each other and let the guy get to his quarterback once in a while and thats how a true southern gentleman works, its called LOVE and harness racing has that.
